The Sidhe

The oldest Irish stories speak of the Tuatha Dé Danann, the shining ones who came from the north where they had learned the great mysteries, and how in the face of the coming of civilization they descended into the síthe, the ancient burial mounds, taking their magic and their knowledge with them. On the Sunday before the Winter Solstice, the day when a shaft of dawn sunlight enters the most famous of the síthe, Síd in Broga (Newgrage),  we will speak about the nature of the realm these people entered and its relationship with the hidden places within us and with the healing of the world.
